Flour-The later advance in wheat has
lent strong tone to the -four market, and
given prices an upward tendency. There has
been a Keeling with local manufacturers, for
considerable ume, that the stocks of spring
wheat flour being small and demand good
they might be able to add few cents to
figures obtained. But to do so required con-
cert OF action. There have been several
agreements for small advances but the agree
ments have been broken as quick as made.
Several, fearing another would get a cut in
ahead OF themselves, have invariably quoted
below the quoted price. Practically each
higher cost of wheat will now, most likely,
force stricter adherence to added values

ahead, howl of delight went up that made
the rafters ring.
j. Knapp, register of deeds for Grant
county, Dakota, residing at Milbank, was q
the crops in his section, he said it varied a
good deal, and so it was hard to make an es-
innate what the yield per acre would be. Mr..
Knapp is accompanied by Mr.: Eastman, sup
erintcndent of elevators for Messrs. Pratt &
Porter, and who also lives at Milbank, Oak.
A. W. Krech ran over from st. Paul yester-

Mumm's extra dry was pretty fine, but then
Krech says he didn't set them up.
1t is rumored that c. NJ. Schultz, trade man

behind that st. Paul clock, and by the way.
Mr.. Schultz appeared on the floor yesterday
TOR the first time and was heartily welcomed.
a. Krech says he expects to see the GLOBE
